Idea Driven Education Projects

IDEA EXCHANGE​S

In IdeaExchanges, we work together to construct meaning - we come to shared understanding of an issue, problem or idea - which will help those involved create meaningful solutions. IdeaExchanges can transform faculty meetings and class discussions.

CURATION LABS

Curation Labs inspire students to become passionate about good writing and eager to experiment as writers.

 

In Curation Labs we explore a wide variety of writing styles to determine what we value in the texts. We then create and share different pieces together and curate a unique class collection of mentor texts (by published authors and students).

​​

ETHICS AND CURRENT EVENTS

Our Ethics and Current Events engage students because our non-fiction texts are closely tied to an ethical questions and an open-ended discussion.  Our lessons encourage students to read critically, write reflectively, and offer heartfelt opinions.  We provide units with articles, discussion guidelines and writing prompts or we can tailor specific Ethical Question units to your group.

CODING AND DESIGN​

There have never been more tools available for people to become creators and makers yet most of us spend our time consuming media. We seek to make the principles of design and the power of code accessible to students, teachers, and working adults so that we can all take a more active role in shaping the digital and physical tools that we use every day.

CANADIAN HISTORY

The teaching of our history needs an overhaul.  It can and must be a broader story that more deeply explores the people and events who have struggled to make Canada a better country.  Rather than simply focusing on how our country came to be, it’s time for us to explore the history of the attempts to make our country fulfill its promise. 

IDEA DRIVEN ADVOCACY​

Technology has a greater and greater impact on our lives, but too many groups are left out of the tech world. For these groups and individuals, there are fundamental issues of equity and access that need to be addressed so that this essential field (both in business and education) can benefit from the talent and creativity of all people.

Our workshops can help your oganization become part of the solution.
